Windshield Washer problems

I bought a 2004 TL used and this is my first winter in Colorado. My windshield washers keep freezing and blowing the fuse. I have filled the washer bottle with -30 degree fluid but it just keeps freezing up. I have also replaced the fuse multiple times. Does anyone know how to remove the nozzles and drain the filler bottle. I having a hard time finding the line from the bottle to the spray nozzles. I am guessing that is the next step to try and fix the problem. Anyone have any other suggestion other than going to the dealership which sucks in Boulder.

Don't mean to jack your thread, but since it's about window washers..
Is it normal that if the sunroof is left open and you use the window-washer-fluid-spray-thing it will go into the backseat of the car and spray your passengers?
